Possible Transformers Titans Return Shockwave Revealed [Updated]

Big news, folks! Thanks to Facebook user Dallas Mace, we have a potential leak of an upcoming Titans Return deluxe figure: Shockwave! Now, this is still just a rumor, but as some Peg Tags at a North Carolina Walmart have revealed, we have a more than slight indication that a Deluxe Shockwave is in our future. Check out the provided photographic evidence!

UPDATE: Fellow Seibertronian jamesbenjamin points out that the barcode seen on the tag corresponds to that of Fall of Cybertron deluxe Shockwave from years ago, as seen below.

We'd suggest diving into your bag of salt once more, and just consider this a misnamed placeholder for a new deluxe figure from the Titans Return line, though not the purple Decepticon commander after all.

This might seem a little *ahem*illogical, however, seeing as he just got a legend-class toy in the Combiner Wars toyline, but hey, at one time during CW we had two different sized versions of Skywarp on the shelves at the same time, so anything can happen!

Why would they have a name tag specifically for one of the four (or one of five, even) deluxes in the wave? That... doesn't make any sense. Considering it's not even listed as 'Generations' it could be some special RiD figure for all we know.

There is also a possibility that's he's a Walmart exclusive fig. So that's why he gets his own shelf. But of course this hasn't happened with The two marvel legends exclusives they had so far.

Will this new Shockwave be revealed later this month at New York Toy Fair? Stay tuned to Seibertron.com to find out, as our coverage will be starting soon!

That's the barcode for FoC Shockwave from a few years ago. Check the gallery and you'll see the barcode # is the same.

Well you have to look at the last number for the bar code for the fall of cybertron shockwave then look at the price tag for this shockwave the last number on the foc shockwave is not there on the price tag

The last number of every barcode is a check digit. It is not part of the number of the product.

The date on the new tag, however, has been updated - so we'd suggest diving into your bag of salt once more, and just consider this a misnamed placeholder for a new deluxe figure from the Titans Return line, though probably not the Decepticon commander.

The date on the sticker is the date it was printed. The last number of a barcode number is a check digit and is not related to the product's number. It can be different in different systems.

All I've ever wanted is a Deluxe G1 Shockwave and this could be it!

It's this toy

Some of us weren't able to purchase it when this toy was released.

he isnt being rereleased. If you want this toy you have to go to eBay or other avenues.

Where did you get "we hope this toy is rereleased" vibe from? All Destron said was the supposed Shockwave toy (if it exists) would be the figure he has been wishing for. All I said was that some of us couldn't get/didn't know about the FoC Shockwave, so a new Deluxe would be nice.

One possible way to make that Shockwave work (sort of) with the TR theme would be to leave him with the original head and remould the gun with a mini-robot mode. either a normal Titanmaster that fits in a new gun frame, or a brand new weapon type of robot as some sort of exclusive mini-theme.

That would allow old toys to be re-released and loosely tie to the theme. it might even be possible to simply sell the arms Micron version and keep the insectoid Micron accessory.

I'll be interested to find out what it's all about though eventually.

I must try to get some part lot or Junker WFC Shockwave sometime as the one I bought was missing a foot.

WFC Shockwave is not being rereleased in TR. I doubt it's even going to be part of a Platinum set, and that's the more likely thing. If anything, this was either a mistake, or they are making an all new Shockwave. Heck, it could also be a mislabel for CW Shockwave.

To me it's clear it is a mistake. That doesn't mean that a new Shockwave isn't coming, but labeling a case assortment with the name of one of the figures in said case instead of just "TRA GEN DLX" or something of the sort doesn't make any sense. The only possible way this isn't a mistake in my mind is if it isn't part of any wave or standard size class and is a special figure in his own right, which would certainly be strange for multiple reasons - no labeling beyond just 'Shockwave' and special figures not being started with someone more popular like Bumblebee or Optimus being prime among them.

... or. Hear me out.

Didn't we just have a vote where we could choose one out of 9 contestants, implying all of them at least had some toy design ready? And wasn't one of those contestants a certain mono-eyed purple logic loyalist?
